I used a wall sweep to show a stone veneer wall. The problem I'm having is it cuts out space for the window but not the trimwork around the window. The trim around the window was done as a model in place. Any suggestions on how to achieve the look I'm going forward.

Your problem is thickness. The sweep hides your trim. Either make the trim thicker or the sweep thinner.
I don't be;ieve this should even be a sweep but that's up to you nd how your wall is made up. It could have been in the wall definition, or a stacked wall or two seperate walls.

Thanks for the reply, if you don't mind, how would you have done it? I'm always interested to learn new ways of doing things in Revit.

The problem is your window family. Check the "Opening Cut", which creates the rough opening.
If you want to cut the stone veneer, then the "Opening Cut" should go all the way to the outside edge of the trim,
From the design and construction point of view, that way just missed the purpose of the trim, which should be used to cover the roughness of the edges of the siding and the veneer. Keep in mind, that Revit is juat a drafting tool, you should always model things as you are building the real structure. If it does not work, it might be because the design was wrong.
